3 Purpose Process heavy residuum to produce distillates (naphtha & gas oils) that may be catalytically upgraded Hydrotreating, catalytic cracking, and/or hydrocracking Attractive for heavy residuum not suitable for catalytic processes Large concentrations of resins, asphaltenes, & heteroatom compounds (sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen, metals) Metals, sulfur, & other catalyst poisons generally end up in coke Sold for fuel & other purposes Carbon rejection process Coke Drums Coke Fired Heater Steam Fresh Feed Gas Naphtha Light Gas Oil Heavy Gas Oil Fractionator

6 Characteristics of Petroleum Products Refining Overview Petroleum Processes & Products, by Freeman Self, Ed Ekholm, & Keith Bowers, AIChE CD-ROM, 2000
7 Development of Coking After World War II railroads shifted from steam to diesel locomotives Demand for heavy fuel oil sharply declined Coking increases distillate production & minimizes heavy fuel oil 1950 to 1970 coking capacity increased five fold More than twice the rate of increase in crude distillation capacity Increase in heavy high sulfur crude combined decrease in heavy fuel oil
8 Coking Chemistry Carbon rejection process Coke has very little hydrogen shifts to the lighter products Metals (hydrotreatingcatalyst poisons) concentrate in coke Cycle of cracking & combining Side chains cracked off of PNA (Polynuclear Aromatic) cores Heteroatomsin side chains end up in light products PNAs combine (condense) to form asphaltenes& coke Metals & heteroatomsin PNA cores end up in coke Conditions High temperatures & low pressures favor cracking More distillate liquids Lower yields of coke & hydrocarbon gas High residence time favor the combining reactions Over conversion will reduce distillates & produce coke and hydrocarbon gases

10 Coking Technologies Provider ConocoPhillips Foster Wheeler / UOP KBR Lummus Technology ExxonMobil Features Delayed Coking with unique features of: furnace design; coke drum structure, design, layout, & scheduling; coke handling Fluidized bed
11 Delayed Coking Predominate coking technology Delayed Coking technology is relatively inexpensive Open art available Companies do license technology emphasizing coke furnaces, special processing modes, & operations
12 Feed for the Delayed Coker Delayed Coker can process a wide variety of feedstocks Can have considerable metals (nickel & vanadium), sulfur, resins, & asphaltenes Most contaminants exit with coke Typical feed is vacuum resid Atmospheric resid occasionally used Typical feed composition 6% sulfur 1,000 ppm(wt) metals ConradsonCarbon Residue (CCR) of wt% or more Feed ultimately depends on type of coke desired
13 Solid Products Coke with large amounts of metals & sulfur may pose a disposal problem Oil sands pile it up Product grades Needle coke Anode grade Fuel grade Product Morphology Needle coke Sponge coke Shot coke
14 Solid Products High quality products Needle coke FCC cycle oils & gas oils Used for electrodes in steel manufacturing Anode grade coke Residswith small ring aromatics, low metals, & low sulfur Used for electrodes in aluminum production Hydroprocessingupstream of delayed cokermay be used to make high quality coke Fuel grade coke About 85-90% carbon, 4% hydrogen, 4-7% sulfur, 1% nitrogen, oxygen, vanadium & nickel Feedstock resid high in polynuclear aromatics & sulfur Value similar to coal
15 Solid Products Morphology Needle coke Very dense & crystaline in structure Sponge coke Is sponge-like in structure Shot coke Cannot avoid based on asphaltenecontent of feed From size of small ball bearings to basketball Operational adjustments required in cutting & handling of coke

18 Light Products Vapor light ends processed in refinery gas plant Liquids Naphtha fraction May be used as catalytic reformer feed after hydrotreating Small fraction of gasoline pool Light Gas Oil Used in diesel pool after hydrotreating Hydrocracker processes aromatic rings Heavy Gas Oil fed to catalytic cracker or Hydrocracker preferred Flash Zone Gas Oil Increases liquid yield & reduces coke make Composition Reduced aromatics but high olefin content Though heteroatomsare concentrated in coke still high in sulfur
19 Feedstock Selection Amount of coke related to carbon residue of feed Correlates to hydrogen/carbon ratio & indicates coking tendency Three main tests Conradson Carbon (ASTM D 189) Ramsbottom method (ASTM D 524) MicrocarbonResidue Test (ASTM D 4530 )
20 Yields Low yields of liquids relative to hydrocracking Mass conversion of vacuum residsto liquids about 55% about 90% for hydrocracking Coke & liquid yields may be estimated by simple equations (misprint pg. 104 see pg. 117) Coke Yield (wt%) = 1.6 (wt% CCR) Gas (C4-) (wt%) = (wt% CCR) Gasoline (wt%) = (wt% CCR) Gas Oil (wt%) = (wt% Coke) - (wt% Gas) - (wt% Gasoline) Gasoline (vol%) = (wt% Gasoline ) API Gas Oil (vol%) = (wt% Gas Oil) API

24 Example Yield Problem #1 What are the expected products from a delayed coker when running 100,000 sbpdof the Torrance Field crude oil (assay on page 404)? Use the residuum as given in assay. Steps Determine volume feed based on vol% yield of vacuum resid. Determine mass feed based on density of vacuum resid. Determine yield percentages based on formulas. Gas Oil Yield is calculated by difference from 100%. Determine amounts based on yield percentages. Determine densities based on volumes & mass produced. Determine the distribution of sulfur based on the typical factors. Scale the sulfur content of the products as wt%. Split up the non-sulfur portion of the cokergas according to the typical composition. Correct for presence of sulfur. Reduce the moles of H 2 replace with appropriate amount of H 2 S.
